Eric Hobsbawm: The myth of "responsible capitalism"

On the same page there is a ink to "Capitalism and Degrowth—An Impossibility Theorem":

This programmed-in emphasis on growth as a part of the economy is, in my opinion, one of the key flaws in any viable economy, and certainly contradicts the view that our own economy is a free market. I don't believe it is. It is an economy carefully planned in every way around a false idea of growth as a necessary condition for money-lending activities.

Our society is simply "planned" in a different way, around the sacrosanct principle of continual growth.
